That is very good news.
If the jaw is not broken and he does not have a concussion, I'd bet he isn't even DLed.
When I was 12, I took a baseball off the orbital ridge above my eye from my second baseman (i was playing SS during warm ups and was turning to take the "balls in" throw from the OF... my 2B chose that moment to rocket a final double play turn practice toss at me, which drilled me above my left eye). No concussion, nothing broken.
I was fine after 3-4 days (had stitch marks around my eyebrow, which my then-girlfriend thought was cool).
Now, granted, that was a baseball that was probably throw 50 MPH (from about 15 feet away) rather than a ball thrown 90 from 60... but it also hit me in a much more sensitive area.
